122 of Our Favourite Funny and Cute Hamster Names

January 22, 2019 By Johnny Salib 5 Comments

It can be difficult to name a new pet, especially when you don’t have a favourite TV Show, video game or book character that your pet looks like. This is especially true when it comes to hamsters.

Luckily for us, it was extremely easy to come up with our hamster Twitch’s name since that’s what she was doing when she was surrendered to us.

I had a lot of fun finding and coming up with some of the best calico cat names and betta fish names, but why is it that I haven’t made a list about hamster names?

Well, today is the day! As always I’m going to put all of my favourite names in bold.

    Sir Nips-a-Lot. I think that’s going to be Bear’s nickname from now on!
